Nikola Jokic was contained after the first quarter as the Nuggets committed sloppy turnovers while Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal knocked down shots for Phoenix on Christmas.

Phoenix Suns fans. The Suns stopped a three-game losing skid in a 110-100 victory over the Denver Nuggets to close out a jam-packed NBA slate on Christmas Day. Phoenix - still down Devin Booker and Grayson Allen - found that coveted energy and toughness that's avoided them for much of the last few weeks when they seemingly needed it most.

Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal each scored 27 points and the Phoenix Suns beat the Denver Nuggets 110-100 night in the nightcap to the NBA’s Christmas slate of games.
